Speaker Circuit Fault
A Speaker Circuit Fault is indicative of one or more of the following faults:-
Speaker Circuit Open Circuit fault.
Check that there are no breaks in the cable, and that all screw connections are secure.
As a panel check, disconnect the circuit indicating the fault, and press the calibrate button. If the fault clears, the
panel is working correctly.
Speaker Circuit Short Circuit Fault
Check that all speakers are fitted the correct way round.
Check than no other devices have been connected to the speaker circuit.
Check for shorts to the cable screen.
As a panel check, disconnect the circuit indicating the fault, and press the calibrate button. If the fault clears, the
panel is working correctly.
Speaker Failure
Because the Premier EVACS 1-16 monitors the speaker circuits for a change in impedance, the system can usually
detect a broken speaker. For example a broken wire to the drive cone will not affect the speaker line`s continuity,
but it will affect its impedance.
Presently, the only way to check for this is by verifying sound output at each speaker on the speaker circuit reporting
the fault.
Earth Fault
The Premier EVACS 1-16 monitors it`s cabling for short circuits to earth. In the event of an earth fault, disconnect the
speaker circuits one at a time to locate the one giving a problem.
Amp Fault
The Premier EVACS 1-16 monitors Amplifiers for correct operation. If one of its power amplifiers reports a fault, the
EVACS 1-16 will report it. Try resetting the panel to clear the fault. If the fault persists, contact your dealer.
System Fault
The Premier EVACS 1-16 monitors its internal software for correct operation. If it detects a possible problem, the
EVACS 1-16 will report it. Try resetting the panel to clear the fault. If the fault persists, contact your dealer.
